Why do the Yankees need a catcher? Posada has been the best catcher in the league so far. How old is he? He's got to be mid 30's, right? Yeah, he's 35. But I still don't see the Yankees wanting Barrett. Barrett can't even hit right now. Add that to his crappy defense and you have yourself a pretty bad baseball player, at the moment. They wouldn't do that deal. Barrett for Baldelli, on the other hand, is very interesting. TB is loaded with OF's and they can part with one. Not to mention that Longoria is coming through the farm system fairly quickly, it'll make one of them even more expendable. And the OF that will be the most expendable will be Baldelli. Tampa also has a weakness offensively at catcher, so hoping that Barrett can turn it around wouldn't be a bad deal for them.
